Wolfgang made good suggestions.  Another gforth-specific tip: the word
"~~" (two tilde characters) prints the stack contents along with a
diagnostic saying where in the program the message came from.  That is
good for debugging: you put ~~ into places in your program where
you want to trace what is going on.

At a higher level, I see a lot of duplicated code between those (penny,
nickel, etc.)  The idea of "factoring" is to put the duplicated stuff
into subroutines that are defined just once, which you can then call
from multiple places.
